Place condensed milk, sugar, butter and Glucose Syrup in a large (3L) microwave-safe glass bowl and microwave for 8 minutes, stopping to stir every 2 minutes. Keep a close eye on the microwave as the mixture may bubble over.

Allow to cool completely before refrigerating for 2 hours. Slice into pieces with a hot knife to serve.
Recipe Note:
We used a 1100 watt microwave at full power. For a lower or higher wattage microwave, additional or less time may be needed to set correctly.
A large 3L is required for microwave fudge as mixture increases in size as it bubbles – any smaller and the mixture may bubble over the sides of your bowl.
Please use oven mitts or a tea towel when handling the glass bowl straight from the microwave as it will be very hot.
